The stroller world is sizzling with the news! The Bugaboo may have finally been knocked off its perch. The stroller market isn’t exactly an easy one to break into, yet the new Urbo Stroller by Mamas & Papas has captured the imagination of stroller experts all over the USA. A reaction like this has not been seen since the bugaboo frog made its historical debut 10 years ago.
Have you heard of Mamas & Papas? Because if you haven’t, you most certainly will.
The name might be new here in the USA, but Mamas & Papas has been around for almost 30 years and is the number one baby brand in Great Britain. This family-owned business decided to travel overseas as a virtually unknown company in this cluttered market, and ended up selling out their Urbo stroller in a mere 4 days.
The overwhelming response has even taken the company by surprise and they are working hard to fill the demand. But now moms everywhere with handfulls of cash are being turned away!
Just looking at the Urbo pushchair ($499.99), you can tell it’s made for a city baby. Sleek, chic and nimble, it was designed to take on the high fashion and crowded streets of an urban environment. It’s lightweight enough to lug around for the day (weighing in at a mere 20 pounds), plus it’s incredibly easy to open, close and maneuver.
And above everything else, it’s simply a pleasure to use. The little one will love the plush seat, full-coverage sun canopy, adjustable footrest and padded handle bar; and mom will love how it feels to push around. (If you’ve never experienced a high-quality stroller, it’s very similar to how a luxury car seems to float on the road.)
Although it’s compact and stripped down to the basics, you’ll still have incredibly useful features like an adjustable handle bar and a surprising amount of storage space. It’s also important to note that the chrome frame doesn’t only look chic, but serves a purpose: no plastic or coils to stick and break. And their attachable baby pram allows newborns on up to enjoy the luxurious ride.
With it’s sleek and sophisticated design, the Urbo stroller offers contemporary and modern street chic with it’s gorgeous steel frame and refined look.
It’s lightweight ease of use allows you to stay in high fashion without lugging around a heavy stroller.
Urbo has an optional bassinet which is suitable for overnight sleeping and can also be transformed into a travel system by using the appropriate car seat adaptors. The Peg Perego Primo Viaggio, Cybex Aton, Maxi Cosi or Graco infant carriers can all be used with the Urbo. Accessories available include the Bassinet ($194.99), Infant Carrier adaptors, Urbo Boot ($79.99), Parasol, Diaper bag ($69.99) and Diaper bag cover ($9.99)
